 * Hi,
 * I am using the typit theme, and the header photos has a grayed/ shadow filter
   over the top of it, which i cant figure out to remove, I’ve seen loads of other
   posts like this and have tried the CSS additions but with no luck, so am unaware
   if its something to do with the theme.
 * If anyone can help, i’d be most appreciated
 * thanks

 * Hi Rosco…. Easy to solve 🙂
 * Go to the customizer and then to the Additional CSS tab. Enter this:
 *     ```
       #header-image::after {
           background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
       }
       ```
   
 * The last 0 digit will make the overlay completely transparent. Setting it to 
   1 will make the overlay black. The default value for the theme is 0.35 which 
   means set the overlay to be 35% transparent.
